Job searching has changed — a lot. AI is screening CVs before humans see them, LinkedIn has become the new job board, and the sheer volume of applications has made standing out harder than ever. But the fundamentals of what makes someone "hireable" haven't changed as much as we think.

In this one-time session, Marina Kerlakian — psychologist, career coach, and HR professional with 15 years on the hiring side at companies like Accenture, ABInBev and Mercado Libre — breaks down what actually works in today's job market in Spain and Europe. Practical, honest, and free of corporate jargon. Whether you're actively searching, thinking about a change, or just curious about where work is heading, this is a conversation worth having.

Complimentary coffee, tea and water will be provided.
